We need to know who sent us this shirt. (Melissa? Was it you?)
Updated to add: Oops, word on the street is that some folks can’t see Flickr.
(P.S. Tuesdays With Murray is on its way as long as the baby cooperates.)
8 Comments »Emory is just over five months old and he has developed a couple of new habits. The first one takes place whenever he eats. He likes to rub his left eye with his left hand. He used to only do this whenever he was sleepy. Now he does it every time he eats. I read that it comforts them, so I’m not going to worry too much about it.
16 Comments »I’m terrified of flying. I have to be hopped up on some serious Xanax to board a flight. Yes, I’m the person who gives up 1500 dollar plane tickets at that last minute, and not see one single penny of it refunded. (I did this right before going to Thailand several years ago.) I’m the girl who prices cars from faraway airports because getting on a return flight makes my stomach fill with bile and my head with tears. I am the girl who chose to drive to and from San Francisco with her three cats instead of board an airplane.
30 Comments »I wrote a little something about Hillary Clinton over on MamaPop today. Check it out if you get the chance. It’s about her emotional “outbreak” the other day. Feel free to discuss it over there (if you can) or here. Or don’t. It’s up to you, sweet Internet people.
7 Comments »Over the holiday, Emory spent a lot of time napping in his crib. Usually, we’ll let him nap around us, but the holidays around the house were busy and therefore loud. So, we hooked up the Graco monitoring system and put him to bed in his crib.
22 Comments »I have my first of many medical appointments today. I am scheduled to take some type of hormone dose iodine pill today so they can scan my thyroid on Tuesday. This doesn’t mean a whole lot to me because, well, I haven’t done it yet. But my guess is that by Thursday, when I meet with the specialist again, I’ll know whether or not I have postpartum thyroiditis or if my hyperthyroidism is something I have had for a while. If it’s the former, things may work themselves out over time, although I have read that 30% of those who suffer from hyperthyroidism after they have a baby then get hypothyroidism because their thyroid burns itself out.
Nope, this isn’t about what’s happening in Iowa. Four years ago today TobyJoe and I eloped to Niagara Falls. Here we are that day. We look so happy!
21 Comments »Recently, TobyJoe and I were discussing the role of the Internet in our lives. It seems that every holiday or vacation or similar break from our daily patterns leads to an awareness of how much time we spend online and how little it really does to better lives.
